Tokyo Convention & Visitors Bureau, affiliated with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, has released 360-degree virtual reality videos via the CHUGOKU+SHIKOKU x TOKYO Website. This Japan travel website introduces recommended locations in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions of Japan as well as Tokyo. The new virtual tour videos offer future tourists more immersive introductions to recommended locations.

In addition to recommended location information, the site also suggests easy overnight trips from Tokyo to encourage travelers to venture beyond Tokyo to the Chugoku and Shikoku regions to experience more aspects of Japan. These two fascinating regions are particularly well-known throughout Japan for their historically significant sites as well as more contemporary cultural attractions.

Two immersive 360-degree virtual reality videos promote recommended locations in Yamaguchi Prefecture, in Japan's Chugoku region on the southwest side of Honshu Island, as well as Tokyo:

1. Cherry/YAMAGUCHI features Chidorigafuchi (Tokyo) and Kintaikyo Bridge (Yamaguchi);

2. Drive/YAMAGUCHI features Rainbow Bridge (Tokyo) and Tsunoshima (Yamaguchi).

Panoramic View: After exploring Tokyo from an open-top double-decker bus… take a trip to Tsunoshima Island in Shimonoseki City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The scenery from the Tsunoshima Bridge connecting Tsunoshima Island to Honshu Island is a must-see! A great trip to feel at one with sky and ocean...
